Kind of some lacking parts, such as the increasing weird sex stuff that gets crazier every book and the writing just felt a little bad in conversation between tazara and tleilax leader. Almost makes the tleilax leader seem like a complete idiot at least right now. Still it is interesting. I like the focus on love being an emotion that must be kept in check by Bene Gesssrit

Book is actually really interesting so far. I like the deeper look at the factions like bene tleilax. I just hope it doesn’t fall apart because I know the dune series kind of declines in quality according to many as it goes on.

What a remarkably tragic yet quiet and poignant novel so far. The parents of both Edith and William in particular feel like shadows. You expect William’s father to yell at his son in a dramatic scene over his college decisions, yet it is instead a quiet acquiescence, eternally familiar in his childhood.
